The Mastretta Unidiseño (previously Unidiseño Mastretta) was a kit-car coupé designed and manufactured by Mexican kit-car maker Unidiseño.
History
Unidiseño was created around
1996 by Daniel Mastretta, Mexican designer, and usually manufactures metropolitan
peseros and buses.
However, Mastretta was interested in the world of kit-cars so he created his own car. He took the chassis of the popular
Volkswagen Beetle and made a
fibreglass body, with a similar design to that of the
Chevrolet Corvette and the
Ferrari 360.
Despite the sportive car image, the engine remained the same of the Beetle so the top speed of this car is .
This is the only car produced by Unidiseño and was sold in Germany and in the United States.

Mastretta
Following the creation of the
Mastretta MXT serial-production project, the previous Unidiseño cars are now called
Mastretta MXA and
Mastretta MXB. Then, the Mastretta Unidiseño may be considered Unidiseño's first car, and the MXT, Mastretta's first car although they remain the same maker.
